Please read the note at the end!
The sun was high above Sindria as seven figures walked through the courtyard, chatting about their day.
"So Noah, how's your research going?" Reibun asks, her curiosity about the herbalist's experiments showing. Everyone in the palace had heard her talking aloud and writing in a book as she travelled down to the Sindrian Forest, and come back four hours later with Mariam holding a basket of herbs the size of a small person. Many people were intrigued about Mariam just appearing everytime without fail when Noah needed her, but none wanted to interrupt the research Noah was doing, or risk the rage of the crazed financial stability seeker known as Ja'far. The advisor had taken to having his desk facing a window that overlooked the Black Libra tower, in an attempt to watch over their work.
"It's going great, I'm closer than ever to figuring out a treatment," Noah smiles. She then pointed to Mariam, whose sleeve was captured by Lulu. "Thanks to Mariam, I was able to get all the herbs I needed. I hope I didn't interrupt your training with Sharrakan and Yam "
Mariam blushes. "It was no problem. My training was just short technique lessons while Alibaba and Aladdin are away."
"Well," Reibun starts, clapping her hands together. "I'm glad you made good progress."
"Reibun what have you done," Aafje speaks up, her voice possessing a tone of suspicion. "You've been in a tizzy all morning."
"Planning my wedding with the man of my dreams," Reibun sighs dreamily.
"Romance," Kadia says in a disgusted voice, sticking out her tongue mockingly.
"Oh hush, you," Reibun says, sticking out her tongue at Kadia in response to the half-dragon's action. "Kadia, what did you and Winter do? You two have been hanging out ever since Aladdin and the others departed to capture Zagan."
Kadia and Winter look at each other and shrug. "Bonding," says Kadia, with Winter nodding her head in agreement.
"Okay then," says Reibun suspiciously. "Aafje, what have you been doing in the library?"
"Reteaching Lulu the alphabet and how to read it. She's a good reader and only needed a recourse in the alphabet," Aafje answers, giving Lulu a small smile.
"I really like reading," Lulu mumbles, playing with the hem of her shirt.
Winter opens her mouth and starts to say something, but in that moment, large 'boom' shook the entire island.
"HOLY FUCK! WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT," Kadia screams, her eyes going wide. All around the island similar noises of distress were heard.
"Look! Look up at the barrier!" A shout was heard behind the seven and they did just that.
Looking up to the sky, they could make out the silhouette of a man hovering above the island.
"Judar," Reibun gasps, her wide eyes narrowing to glare at the figure, who was surely the cause of melting dome that protected the island.
"What's happening to the sky!?" Lulu says with fright, hiding behind Mariam, clutching her cloak as if it were a lifeline.
"It's Yamraiha's magic barrier… but it's supposed to be impossible to break," Kadia says grimly, her hands wrapping around the hilt of the sword she kept at her hip.
"Well clearly he broke it," Aafje said dryly, her eyes betraying her nervousness. Even the people of Remano had heard rumors of the blue-haired magician's prowess with the magical arts.
"But isn't the barrier supposed to be unbreakable and unstoppable?" Winter remarks in shock. Her face was marred with confusion and fear as she stared at the dissolving barrier, melting away like ice on a sunny day.
"I thought we went over this already, whoever is up there just destroyed the unbreakable barrier," Aafje responds, her hands curled into fists as she started to back up away from the center of the courtyard.
Hi, this is Lulu and this is the last chapter I'm writing.
Before you get the notion that we all got into a fight, it's my decision to stop writing. Actually even all my fellow authors learned of this just a few minutes ago.
Im not a good writer. The only reason my chapter turned out good in my first chapter is that Noah betaed and finished it for me. This was actually my first fanfic i've ever been even a part of. And its been great! I loved the planning and everything was really fun to do! I dont want to be the person who holds back everyone. So what im trying to say is you don't have to wait a month for the next chapter anymore X,D
((These chapter was actually 6 pages in docs but I deleted most of it cause it would leave alot of loose ends and basically i wasnt finished with it))
So I'm not sure what everyone is going to do with my character. Logging off of this fanfic account for the last time. Thanks for reading!
~ Lulu
